The one that comes round here plays “boys and girls go out to play”

Just one Cornetto,or O sole mio,I think is the correct name. Bloody annoying it is too as I get it stuck in my head on a loop whenever I hear it. Another one plays Yankee Doodle. At least I think that's what it's called.

One of ours plays that.

Another plays a very familiar tune that I just can quite get. So frustrating!

I can't remember!! We have a few different ones do around here & always know it's them, but can't remember what tunes they play.

Teddy Bears' Picnic... every time I hear it I have to stop myself from singing PICNIC TIMES FOR TEDDY BEARS, THE LITTLE TEDDY BEARS ARE HAVING A WONDERFUL TIME TODAAYYYYY, WATCH THEM CHANGE THEIR UNDERWEAR... (I know it's catch them unawares, but this is the stupid version from my childhood!)

The “A team” theme tune

I was always Teddy Bears picnic when I was growing up (in the midlands).
I was so surprised to hear Match of the Day when I went to see a friend in Middlesbrough. I think there’s regional variations.

Genuinely don't know the original song!!

This is a brilliant post by the way @Soubriquet - I've had a very long day at a conference (good but knackering) and this has really put a smile on my face and helped with my flagging energy levels, so thank you!

Although I do really, really want a cider lolly or a screwball ice cream now!
